Two new species of the Genus Australobius (Lithobiomorpha, Lithobiidae) from Qinghai-Tibet plateau

Two new species of the genus Australobius Chamberlin, 1920 (Lithobiomorpha: Lithobiidae) discovered in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China are described. Australobius yushuensis sp. n. and Australobius nanqianensis sp. n.exhibit a few morphological differences from their congeners recorded from China, less forcipular coxosternal teeth, only 3+3 as against the others and more ocelli, 10–13 ocelli on each side arranged in three irregular rows instead of two rows. A key to the known Chinese species of the genus Australobius based on adult specimens is presented.
